1422 Edwards Avenue, Bronx, NY 10461

This three-story, six-unit New Law Tenement building at 1422 Edwards Avenue in Schuylerville was constructed in 1934 and is currently owned by Nevruz Rexhepi. The property has a concerning history of maintenance violations, with the most recent recurring issue being the failure to file annual bedbug reports with HPD, with open violations recorded annually from 2021 through 2024.

More significantly, there are unresolved safety concerns from 2018, including problems with the fire escape system, building entrance security, and multiple maintenance issues such as loose thresholds and broken stairs. These 2018 violations include a broken second tread in the first-story public hall stairs (classified as Class C), loose entrance thresholds, missing fire escape ladder stops, and obstructed fire escape egress due to tree branches. The building also experienced problems with window balances in Apartment 1 during the same inspection period.

More recently, a Department of Buildings violation was issued in June 2023 regarding the failure to file the 2020 external low-pressure inspection report, which remains active as of the latest review. While a rodent inspection conducted in April 2019 resulted in a passed compliance status, an initial inspection in March 2019 had failed for unspecified reasons. The building's violation history suggests ongoing challenges with building maintenance and safety compliance, particularly regarding fire safety systems and timely reporting of required inspections.
